Absolutely fantastic service. Rick was a thoroughly nice bloke, picked the car up when he said he would, and dropped it off on time. Can't speak highly enough and will recommend to all!

I was a bit unsure about changing mechanics as my mechanic retired, but found them very professional and he fitted my clutch, flywheel and dual mass cylinder without any problems. Good mechanic and I intend to use him again, as I'm very happy with the repair and it was at a reasonable price. Much cheaper than the competition and he came and collected the car and returned it as promised.

Work completed on time and the details clearly explained. Polite and workmanlike, will definitely use for car servicing in the future

I couldn't be any more impressed with this place. I had a very noisy exhaust but I couldn't see any holes underneath. I was expecting to need the exhaust replaced. Richardson's quoted me £185 which I would have been happy to pay. It turned out a joint had come lose so I was only charged £45. Excellent customer service. Trustworthy mechanics. Would recommend 100%

Garage completed all the work I asked and also did a safety point check on the brakes etc. It had an oil leak which showed up and they replaced the filter which was rusted. All in all, nice people and a good service. Will use them again!

Excellent friendly service. Efficient. Vehicle checked at time agreed. Advice given and quote provided for what was needed to repair vehicle within time scale agreed. No hesitation in recommending this garage.

Established in 1974, Formula One Autocentres set out with a mission to deliver a completely new fast-fit experience to its customers. This would feature clean, modern premises, high-tech equipment and highly trained technicians; far removed from the kind of service normally associated with the industry.

Forty years down the line, we have grown to become one of the UK’s largest independent autocentre chains. The business remains family owned and continues to uphold its original commitment to delivering the highest quality service at the most competitive prices.

That commitment has proved incredibly popular with motorists, creating many thousands of loyal customers who continue to put their trust in Formula One Autocentres.

As a result, the company has gone from strength to strength, currently boasting over 85 state-of-the-art branches across England, with over 500 highly trained staff working seven days a week to provide a full range of services including tyres, exhausts, batteries, brakes, clutches, MOT's and servicing.

We remain resolutely independent, and as a family owned business, avoid being tied down to any single manufacturer or supplier. This gives us the freedom and flexibility to offer the biggest deals on the widest possible range of top branded products, making the company a viable, attractive and cost-effective alternative to both the big national chains and smaller local independent outlets. Quite simply, Formula One Autocentres provides cost-conscious motorists with the most reliable and affordable means of maintaining their vehicles.

We defend our position at the forefront of the fast-fit industry by constantly evolving and developing innovative new products and services to meet the ever-changing demands of our customers. With an ongoing expansion programme and by regular investment in technology, we continue to provide unbeatable fast-fit service along with the very best value prices. In fact, we can confidently claim that no other company is better equipped to face the motoring challenges of the future.

First and foremost, talking from my past experiences, I just want to highlight that nowadays, there are so much unscrupulous garages, mechanics in London, who often tend to deceive women drivers with various rip off tactics. Car Technics, certainly lives up to their reputation as courteous, trustworthy and thorough. I made my decision to check out Car Technics, based on the reviews I read, which of course gave me complete assurance and peace of mind that my experience with this company would be a satisfactory one. I met Daniel for the first time who was very pleasant to talk to and after explaining the issues I had, and by him taking my car for a test drive, he had an inclination of what the problem was, which he later on confirmed by carrying out a thorough diagnostic test on my vehicle. He even took the time to discuss in great detail the cause of this problem, his observations from his diagnosis, the condition my car was in, the work which was required and the disadvantages of not giving this prompt attention. As a result of this, I know that my vehicle is in good hands. My vehicle is currently undergoing the repair process. I will give another update on completion.
